Chinese Medicine Times : Keeping You Informed

Body/Wisdom

Volume 1 Issue 5 - October 2006

In my colleagues, students, and patients I often encounter the assumption that as we develop spiritually our health will improve and we will feel better. This is a type of spiritual materialism akin to the notion that if we are "spiritually aligned” we will experience financial abundance. Actually, I have found no support for either notion in my clinical experience or in life generally. Basically, this is an expression of the idea that, ‘If I do good, I’ll get good” which is the lowest understanding of karma as discussed by Sri Aurobindu.(1952). As it turns out, the cultivation of virtue is for the sake of virtue alone. There is, literally, nothing in it for us.
